PERSONALITY
- POLISHED - Sleetwhisker is nothing if not a cat of skill and sophistication. They are known for their keen senses, hence their suffix, and utilize them to their utmost advantage. While often coming off as lax, Sleet is actually quite diligent and hard-working. Their upbringing has made for a well-groomed, polite individual with strong loyalty for their Clan and a seamless intelligence. They are not against flaunting their heritage, nor their virtues. However, they make sure to not do so in an overtly obnoxious way. Subtlety is key. After all, no one admires a blatant boaster.
- CHARMING - There is a large part of Sleetwhisker that likes impressing others. In fact, they spend most of their time doing so for the simple amusement and confidence boost of it all. Of course this has not been achieved over night. They've practiced endlessly through trial and error to see what works in order to woo the masses - or in most cases, their next fling. Being a rather attractive cat helps, but Sleet also utilizes finely crafted complements and comments to slowly warm their target to them in order to take advantage and mold the other party into a compliant victim of their frivolousness.
- ELOQUENT - Words are one thing that have pretty much always come easily to Sleetwhisker. They enjoy speaking to others, especially when it gives them a chance to better their reputation. Pretty words often spill from this warrior's mouth, and they are generally taken quite well.
- ASSERTIVE - Never having been a particularly shy creature, Sleet is generally rather forth-right in their intentions. They make it clear from the beginning that no, they do not want a mate or commitment. While their efforts to woo the other party can blur this firmly made point, they stick by their aforementioned intentions and don't plan to settle down due to a fling becoming too attached. Sleetwhisker is also assertive in the aspect that they will voice their displeasure as they please and will remain intent on removing anything that makes them uncomfortable in their day to day life. This is especially true concerning their son.
- COLLECTED - Far from the goofy Casanova of their youth, Sleet is a calm and collected cat. They aren't easily riled, and tend to be rather serious about their duties to their Clan and family. While they don't take romance quite as earnestly, they do treat their partners well. However, there is little that ever keeps them with a certain dalliance long. All things are broken off with a cold, cool, and direct approach. Sleet also separates business from pleasure.
- FLIRTY - Although on the more refined part of the spectrum of players, Sleetwhisker has one thing in common with those who are promiscuous. They tend to work those around them with flirty lines. Such lines have matured and evolved over the moons however. Now a little less loose and messy, they enjoy stringing their one night stands along with eloquent compliments and whispered promises.
- VAIN - Sleetwhisker knows that they're quite good looking. They're also intelligent, suave, and skillful in their duties as a warrior. This is something they have always worked toward, and tend to dwell on. Sleet adores themself, and finds themselves fawning over small accomplishments and compliments. This is a trait they generally don't advertise to anyone, rather a thing they express inwardly. It also often makes Sleetwhisker see themself as above others.
- DISTANT - Ever since the death of Lilacnose, Sleet doesn't like getting too close to any one cat. They act the part of a nice, collected member of society but never take the step to further any relationships aside from their familial ones.
- COWARDLY - Sleetwhisker is a brave cat in the sense that they'd willingly jump into a fray of cats to defend CurentClan, but a coward where it counts. They are terrified of loving someone after Lilacnose in fear of losing another lover. Instead they prefer to wallow in her memory and cling to their family while also creating meaningless ties with others only to break them off and distance themselves when they find it getting too serious.
- UNCOMMITTED - Most, if not all relationships that they take part in are held at an arm's length. They refuse to get too close because they don't want any more heartbreak. This leads to them feeling lonely and empty when it all comes down to it. It can also ruin ties within the Clan.
- SHALLOW - Appearances are everything. It's what makes Sleet choose their next fling, and also fuels their need for attention. They were raised believing the thoughts of others mattered most.This often threatens to undo them due to the pressure and anxiety it causes.
- COMPULSIVE - Sleetwhisker has a habit of doing things only out of a whim. It often leads to their endeavors being left half finished and abandonned while other times it could possibly land them into trouble.
HISTORY
- Valeriansky and Avalancheclaw were a deeply loving couple. This showed in their many litters together. Sadly, most of them were either still born or died later on in kithood due to illness or disease. However their last two litters were miracles. Ten moons before the last one Falconkit and Birchkit were born. Both were healthy, strong, and lived to be far older than their other siblings had. This came as a huge relief and source of happiness for their parents. So one can only imagine their joy when Tigerkit, Flurrykit, and Sleetkit were born. The litter seemed just as huge as the last. While Valeriansky was weakened substantially from the strain, it was well worth it to finally have babies to raise like she'd always dreamed.
- Falconpaw and Birchpaw were apprentices by the time Sleetkit and their litter were born. They often visited to play with their younger siblings. This was a rather peaceful time in Sleet's life. They didn't do much other than play, sleep, and terrorize the elders. That is, until they noticed little Lilackit. She was beautiful to them, even as a child. In awe, they demanded they play together, and so they did.
- Upon becoming apprentices Lilacpaw and Sleetpaw became even more inseparable. Sleet often begged their mentor, Sturgeonfang to talk to Lilac's mentor about training together. While it wasn't as constant as their days in the Nursery, Sleetpaw was still happy and content. They learned quickly and thrived under Sturgeon's teachings.
- It wasn't until Sleetpaw was beginning to mature both mentally and physically at a faster rate that they noticed their parents hounding them more about being perfect. They had to watch their posture, speak a certain way, and were scolded harshly if they flirted too much with cats they found attractive. Bewildered and outraged by this, Sleetpaw distanced themselves from their family. They instead focused their efforts on training and Lilacpaw.
- The day Sleetpaw became Sleetwhisker, the newly named Lilacnose made a startling confession. She was falling for Sleet, and had been for a long time. Lilac had been unsure whether Sleetwhisker had felt the same or not due to their blatant appreciation for others in front of her. If they were honest, Sleetwhisker hadn't felt anything for their close friend until then. Call it the power of flattery or simply shallowness, but they accepted Lilacnose as their mate then and their with hearts in their eyes. Never had they thought someone would admire them as purely as Lilacnose did.
- As time went on, Sleetwhisker's feelings for Lilacnose solidified. It was no longer about appreciating someone's attention. Lilacnose had always been and always would be their closest ally, and wasn't that the most essential part of being mates? Supporting and caring for one another like a best friend? So naturally they were both thrilled and intimidated when their mate announced her pregnancy with their kits. Were they ready to be a parent?
- Ready or not, the day of their kit's birth came swiftly. Sleetwhisker had made sure to dote on their mate the entire two moons, and was just about bursting with pride when they first heard their son's loud wails. A tired Lilacnose and they named the little tom Hailkit, and it was the best moment in Sleet's entire life.
- When Hailkit was four moons, a flood ravaged CurrentClan. In all the chaos, Lilacnose gave Sleetwhisker their son before disappearing under an unforgiving wave of water. It would be the last time they would ever see their mate again. From then on Sleet raised Hail dotingly, with affection they'd never again show anyone else. Now that their soul mate was gone, Sleet felt doomed to walk the earth alone for the rest of their life. This lead to the continuation of the promiscuity of their youth.
